Beauty on Bodkin Creek

By Lisa J. Gotto | Photography by Nima Mohammadi

This light and bright modern stunner of a waterfront property offers exquisite views and flawless execution of the contemporary, open floorplan that received a complete custom remodel in 2020.

Upon entering you are greeted with an expanse of Bodkin Creek before you, courtesy of keen sightlines and an exquisite set of French floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors.

Wide-plank oak floors usher you along the width of the openplan living area, helping to create a tranquil palate of light floors and gray-washed walls. A sunny dining area is located just to the right of the front door. The crisp, bright kitchen gleams with white granite countertops and integrated custom cabinetry with modern hardware detail. This kitchen arguably offers one of the best views of Bodkin Creek from a pair of above-sink and countertop seamless horizontal window panels that seem to go on forever. The room’s center island is a huge statement-maker offering generous breakfast bar seating for four, and an in-island stainless steel six-burner gas range.

Follow along the hardwood floors and you’ll experience a complete continuation of those creek views and this level’s access to the home’s extraordinary wraparound deck. This generous living area takes on extra square footage as it expands to the ginormous deck; a true entertaining lover’s dream!

A set of double doors leads you to a lovely space for your home office, or a main level guest bedroom with en suite bath and balcony.

An open, airy stainless cable staircase ascends from the entry way and leads you to three additional bedrooms on the upper level. The primary suite offers exquisite waterfront views, a generous walk-in closet, a luxurious en suite bath with double vanity and steam shower, and access to the home’s second level deck; truly a getaway for the heart and soul.

The other water-facing bedroom on this floor also offers balcony access, and both secondary bedrooms share a full bath, as well as the perk of a second-level laundry.

The home’s lower level is completely finished and ready to provide multigenerational living opportunities whenever necessary with its convenient kitchenette, full bath, generous living area with rec room, and lower-level patio access.

An additional living area/in-law suite with a separate office area, kitchenette, bedroom, and full bath is located above the property’s generous two-car garage. All this is just steps from a brand-new private pier completed in 2021 and outfitted with a new bulkhead and two electric boat lifts capable of handling a 12,000-pound boat and the other, two jet skis totaling 2,800 pounds.
